We get post roughly weekly if we're lucky. When I do it sounds like an earthquake with the pile that is delivered. Another example of privatisation going badly wrong and consumers bearing the brunt for corporate greed. My mum was telling me it was cheaper for her to courier a parcel to me via Evri than sending via Royal Mail. Not good.

On Sunday (!) I had 9 items of post delivered (with no deliveries for the 6 preceding days)- the normal letters looked current, the two weeklies were for the Friday before last, and that Friday's weeklies weren't there at all.

I get parcels delivered much as I would expect in 'olden days' - normal letters delivered one day a week only and regular magazines (which used, certainly, to have a lower fee than standard large envelopes) 2 weeks late.

It's (still) a joke.

Post not being delivered to Silvester road again not had any for over a week Again!!! Week before that had a weeks worth delivered at once what is going on again I thought the pay dispute strike etc had been agreed but tbh normal lack of service resumes

    • Would anyone have ends of balls of wool, any colour, to mend an old blanket? Any colour? With thanks Mila
    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
